The incorrect statements regarding enzymes are : (A) Enzymes are biocatalysts. (B) Enzymes are non-specific and can catalyse different kinds of reactions. (C) Most Enzymes are globular proteins. (D) Enzyme - oxidase catalyses the hydrolysis of maltose into glucose. Choose the correct answer from the option given below:

Options

  1. A(B), (C) and (D)
  2. B(B) and (D)
  3. C(A), (B) and (C)
  4. D(B) and (C)

Correct answer

B. (B) and (D)

Step-by-step solution

- (A) Enzymes are biocatalysts. This statement is correct. Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions in living organisms without being consumed in the process. - (B) Enzymes are non-specific and can catalyse different kinds of reactions. This statement is incorrect. Enzymes are highly specific in their action. Each enzyme typically catalyzes only one or a very small number of specific reactions due to its unique threedimensional shape, which fits a particular substrate. - (C) Most enzymes ar
